Hi. I am retaking MH4U1 (12 Advanced Functions) and SCH4U1 (12 Chemistry) in private school. I already got a conditional offer from UTSC in neuroscience, but was wondering if it hamper the decision later on? UofT websites are not that clear on repeating courses.
I’m a second year life science student with a pretty good cgpa but absolutely no experiences - am I screwed?
In all honesty I don’t have an idea what I’m going to do with my future and I haven’t joined any clubs. I applied to a program I’ve been really wanting (MRS at uoft!) but honestly not sure if I’ll get in and have been so anxious these past few months about the future. I don’t especially have any backups if I don’t get into MRS and I’m worried that I’m wasting time.
Any advice to stop being so anxious about the future and to just take action?
Hello! Got accepted into life sciences '24. What are the research opportunities like, how hard are the courses if I'm planning on neuroscience and how's the general atmosphere (competition, friendliness etc)?
Thank you :)
hi aska! I am a 1st year in rotman interested in pursuing a cs minor. I read something on reddit about asking the cs department to grant a minor after completing the required courses, and was wondering if it is possible to get a cs minor without being officially enrolled in the stream? (as I know there is an official application process that's very competitive)
desperately need some help. i kinda did really bad in 3/5 of my courses. i passed my bird courses but the 3/5 that I'm pretty sure I failed....kinda need them. I'm taking the part 2 of those classes next quarter. and I'm taking extra required courses in the summer....what do I do...
i saw this thing on reddit that the part 2 of classes, I might be kicked out if I did bad first semester. do I take those courses again second semester? can't I take those in the summer...or do I take my part two classes next year. I'm scared for my life I'm sorry for the long question
hi,i have 4 courses right now and i really want to CR a course (i will pass thankfully). however, i don't know how a CR will be considered by law schools, med schools and grad schools. if i don't CR, i end with a C and while i know uoft med school drops your lowest 2 FCEs and uoft law school only looks at your best overall 3 years of undergraduate study, i don't know their policy on CR on a transcript. i'd really like to avoid keeping the C if i can. please let me know. thank you.
Hiii! Out of curiosity, does UofT value extracurricular during their undergraduate admission? Here's the thing, my consular told us that extracurricular is super important so I believed him and really focused on that. After doing some research UofT become dream school of my life but I heard UofT don't ask for extracurricular. This makes me super stressful since I devoted so much time into those things & Im a BC student, not a Ontario. With an avg of mid 80 is there anything I can do to+the odd
Hey, I’m a first year in the CS stream but I’m also taking ECO101 and ECO102 with the goal of double majoring in computer science and economics. My CS classes are going well and I’m really enjoying them, but I find ECO101 mind-numbingly boring. I enjoyed my macroeconomics class in high school, but this class feels like a dull yet somehow confusing version of basic algebra. Will the econ experience get more interesting after first year, or should I give it up now and find something else?
Hi aska,
I already changed up my major a few times (you might remember me based on some info, i settled on Cellular and Molecular Bio) and now im in 2nd year catching up on CHM135, 136, BIO130, and MAT135, and BIO270 (and i have no room for 136 this year, so I'll either take it in the summer or another year). I was considering dropping my other major (PoliSci) down to a minor and picking up chemistry as another minor depending on how well I do in CHM135 (the registrar said I'd just have to apply for the PoliSci minor in the second session before march) and hopefully switching to a chemistry double major. The only problems are
1) I've already taken 2 credits worth of PoliSci classes and I'm currently enrolled in another credits worth.
2) My parents REALLY want me to graduate in 4 years.
So should I risk it for the Chemistry major (with the potential for wasted classes -- my breadth is already complete) or just do a double minor, or keep everything the way it is?
helloo, i'm a gr 11 highschool student and i'm so stressed out abt uni applications :( my question is, if i apply for early admissions (they only review gr11 marks for this i think) at uoft and don't get in, will i still be able to reapply during general admissions that'll include my gr 12 midterm marks? also, how likely is it for me to get accepted into uoft's psych program if i do bad in gr 11 math and perhaps english? like around low to mid 80s. but my other grades are in the 90s (T^T)
Hi! I’m currently a grade 12 student who is about to apply to university. I was looking at the St. George campus for psychology requirements and it says that Grade 12 Biology is one of them. The thing is…my current biology mark is in the 60s. So I was wondering whether the requirement means that it’ll be included in my top 6? Or whether they are just looking or it? Or how does it really work…
Hey, what are the chances of my offer being rescinded? I got my IAL results and i got 3Bs overall. I had gotten admission into St George Life Sciences with 3 As in my AS. I honestly wasnt expecting the grades to be so bad but the grade boundaries fucked me over. Im worried because some of my units are quite bad, so what are the chances of my offer being rescinded? I reallly dont know what i will tell my parents who already dropped so much money on international flights and the dorms. I feel like dying.
hi, i was wondering: it says you have to apply to POSt after your first year. say i'm going into first year in september 2023. does that mean my first year is over after winter 2024 or after summer 2024?
I just wanted to say thank you for answering all of my questions that I asked while panicking/having a crisis about my life direction. They really helped me feel like it wasn't the end of the world, cheers. :)
hi there,
Hi, I'm going into my first year in september, I want to get into the Physics specialist program. I've been debating over whether to take MAT157 or MAT137, since the former looks more interesting but I'm not sure I'll have the time to study and get a decent grade with the rest of my workload(which is MAT223, CSC108, CSC148, PHY151/152, and three easier elective courses I'm taking for breadth). Thanks!
